Landfilled municipal solid waste has evident heterogeneity, and clogging of the drainage layer can easily happen during operation
of the landfill. These two factors significantly influence the distribution of leachate in a landfill. Herein, the distribution of waste
permeability in the spatial and temporal domains was analyzed. Then, changes to the drainage-layer permeability in the temporal
domain were fitted to these data. A simple model of multilayer waste slope was established combining the finite element software
and a user subroutine. Herewith, changes of permeability in the waste and drainage layers were simulated, such that the
heterogeneity of waste and the process of clogging of the drainage layer could be simulated. Then, the leachate distributions and
transport conditions of nine schemes for landfill were analyzed. The results indicated that the distribution curve of waste-saturated
permeability follows a logarithmic relation in the vertical direction, and the distribution curve of fresh-waste-saturated per-
meability follows a polynomial relation in time. After each landfill is worked for a few years, the drainage layer always encounters
clogging problems of some kind and its permeability decreases by one to five orders of magnitude. Through numerical models, the
simulation results of the permeability distribution in the spatial and temporal domains were found satisfactory. When the
permeability distributions were layered in the buried depth, pore pressures and leachate levels are smaller than the logarithmic
distributions. During the process of degradation, the pore pressures and leachate levels are increased slightly under the con-
sideration of the polynomial distribution of waste permeability in time. With clogging of the permeability of the drainage layer, the
pore pressures and leachate levels of landfill were found to be increasing gradually. To obtain results closer to that of actual
situations, corresponding models should be established and analyzed based on a range of permeability, waste degradation rate, and
degree of clogging.
